Just wanted to ask for any insight you experienced anglers might have on fishing this pond. I've only landed 2 bass after about half a dozen trips here one was my PB, and I've heard there are some nice 4-5 pounders lurking here. The pond is Scarlet oak pond in mawah NJ. There's lots of shore access on the south and east sides it's relatively shallow if I remember correctly however on the western side out toward the middle it drops off well over 20 feet. Water is to my eyes clear with a lot of millfoil wich grows week after week. I see huge top water explosions in the evening usually out in the middle and I've only gotten hits casting out far from shore using soft plastics. On the eastern side where it's pretty shallow the weeds make huge mats at the surface where as on the other half they are submereged. This is my first year bass fishing and I've only landed 6 bass so obviously I have a lot to learn but this website and Youtube have been such a big help. Thanks for any advice.
